Both NBC’s Andrea Mitchell and Internet powerhouse Matt Drudge seem to have come to the same conclusion: if you want any answers from the Obama administration, your only chance is to hope that Jay Leno brings up your question during one of his annual televised chats with the president.
White House spokesman Jay Carney’s indefatigable ability to “appreciate” reporters’ questions while refusing to address them has been hilariously documented, but with all of those phony scandals piling up, both the press corps and the public are less and less amused by whatever it is that Carney does for a living. While our ongoing investigation into Carney’s incompetence continues, we’d refer you to these citizens for comment.
Jay Carney says "I have no information." Yeah thanks for the f***ing newsflash on that Jay. We're all stunned that you have no information.

@zakn @AceofSpadesHQ Put Euro-frames on a shoe brush and you've got Jay Carney.

Last Friday’s White House briefing was canceled due to a chance of questions about those Benghazi survivors who say they’re being intimidated into silence, but Carney did at last address CNN’s bombshell report today. It turns out he has no information on the subject.
The briefings do serve some purpose. Carney used one recently to clarify exactly which of the many scandals plaguing the president are the phony ones. What else do you people want?

@BecketAdams Pretending to care what the media and the voting public think, emphasizing the lie-filled talking points from the memos?

Get ready for a flash flood of information tomorrow as the man himself steps up to the teleprompter before heading to Martha’s Vineyard.
President Obama just told reporters he will have a news conference on Friday before he heads out on vacation — it was widely expected
— Ed Henry (@edhenry) August 8, 2013
The last Obama solo news conference was April 30 when he said "rumors of my demise may be a little exaggerated"

@whpresscorps @ron_fournier @HuffPostPol He will take a question and then make a speech. He doesn't like follow ups. We should learn a lot.
